    10 Videos From the S&S DVD!!

    in ARCHIVE - Madonna

    It's that fucking guitar. Whenever she straps it on and starts to do rock versions of her songs, her voice takes on this brittle, harsh sound where she screams the lyrics rather than sings them. I guess it's her version of "rocking out", but I just cringe when she does that. She used to be better at handling the guitar playing while her vocals came across as softer.

    U referring 2 the crow voice. Yes. :fag:

    Obviously the vocals r different from what we know..but they don't sound fake..

    It's very well mixed 2 have a live mic sound..Someone who hasn't heard a dozen

    bootlegs probably couldn't tell..With Vogue RIT even my dad noticed it wasn't live..

    cuz the audio mix was 2 filtered (wether pré-recorded or not it's all about the actual mix)..

    The same way much of the CT sounded 2 canned (but I think that was part of the 'filmsy/Swarmy

    Disco Jonas Stuart' concept)

    Now if u want fake & I'm surprised no one ever mentions this, watch Truth Or Dare.

    Beyond fake vocals. :fag:

    or Prince's Sign 'o' The Times'..

    Or anything David Bowie from the 70's..who actually goes in2 the studio 2 re-record backing vocals :lmao:

    The lesbo manager was pretty much the only actor in this (besides Dean Stockwell whose only in two or three scenes anyways) that actually has done anything else, LOL.

    I've been rewatching some of the best parts (like when she tells the Stevie Nicks lookalike to toss her hair, and when she gets the drummer she doesn't want in her band kicked out by announcing they slept together and does the Nikki Finn whistle and in comes the Stephen Bray guy immediately) on YouTube. They should've done a followup covering 1984-1996, figuring the birth of Lola and discovery of Kaballah would be a good cutoff point for a sequel. Imagine some of the campy shit they can do with Sean and Sandra.

    u seen this:

    Sorry, no. And sexism has nothing to with it! Just because Madonna's strengths lie in her abilities as a coordinator and a collaborator doesn't lessen her stature as a musical force. But she's a performer first and foremost, a musician second.

    Okay..this is something different compared 2 ur previous insinuation... :fag:

    But as far as the general public is concerned sexism has everything 2 do with it.

    I think it feels more like Madonna than the two that came before it, certainly. But the scenario you described sounds like most of Madonna's albums, really. I mean, the only album I can say for sure that she had a large hand in writing was American Life.

    No it sounds like the perception of some male chauvinist rock critic.

    But from what we know it's closer 2 the truth 4 HC than any other Madonna

    album....I mean if Nile Rogers is 2 b beleived she didn't even do that

    4 Like A Virgin.. as 4 the writing process I have no reason 2 disagree

    with Mirwaïs, Orbit or Price..since I wasn't there.. :fag:

    So true! :thumbsup: Even "Music" is a lot cooler like this now!

    To me "Miles Away" and "La Isla Bonita" sound live, they might have just mixed her best live vocals there. "BGO" seems to be dubbed by the album version though, that's kinda surprising, considering for many parts in that song she was already using heavy backing tapes. I guess "Heartbeat", "SNM" and "GI2M" will sound the same. "Candy Shop" sounds pretty much identical to most of the bootlegs as well.

    Did anyone notice the sample in "Music" was changed to "put your hands up Argentina" instead of "for New York"? :D

    Miles away & LIB on Youtube?

    Holiday and Dress You Up and Everybody Are Back!

    Sidewalk Talk or Physical Attraction would have been great in the old skool section

    I can't believe that monstrous version of "Borderline". :vomit: I'd waited years for her to do that, then when she finally does it, it's in a rock version. Wtf?! Most ridiculous idea eva!

    Nevermind the 'rock' element..but the fact that someone is payed 2 b a musical

    director & let her sing the song in that key is just beyond me.

    U know I can take a half hearted rendition of Material Girl 'cuz she's always been

    kinda whatever when performing that song..but Borderline deserved more.

    If she still does that 'request' thing I'm gonna make it my mission 2 ask 4 'Little Red Corvette' :fag:

    Holiday should replace that Beat Goes On crap..the Holiday intro would whip the crowd in2 a frenzy..

    Crowd reaction 4 Sticky & Sweet has been rather odd me thinks 4 a large part of the audience the oldies

    r unrecognisable the first 30 seconds..so u never get that lovely roar..which is so cool if that happens in

    a stadium..come 2 think of it '4 minutes' probably got the biggest initial response... :americanlife:

    New Madonna Song?

    Well, she didn't claim primary writing credit on ROL- that's shared with four other people. And, she did add a whole second verse. :) As for NF, has anyone heard Jem's original demo? it's NF's sister,. "Don't Tell Me," where M said out loud said, "song I wrote..." I guess we'd have to compare Joe Henry's original version to DTM (or, if the one on his album is just that). Even still, if the lyrics really weren't changed all that much, and the structuring/melody was, that's part of the process.

    Bottom line is that, ageism be damned, M wants to remain commercially relevant- I just hope the finished product is decent. "4 Minutes" was OK, but with the Timbas on board, it just didn't feel like a Madonna effort like most of her classics- nor was it as strong.

    But I maintain her additional lyrics 4 Papa Don't Preach were 'OOh..aah..' :americanlife:

    Say something NICE about M's AMERICAN PIE.

    As a bonus track, yeah. Like the way "Into the groove" was slapped onto "The First Album." :rolleyes::lol:

    "Gone" is the proper last song on Music, period, and I'll slap anyone who dares think otherwise.

    Listen dude Into The Groove was never slapped onto 'The First Album'.

    It was given its own slot on a proper reissue of 'Like A Virgin'..Mariah style..

    As 4 AP being on 'Music'..it's track 11 unfortunately..it don't say bonus.

    & even if it did what's it 2 u..u got cyberragga.. :americanlife:
